Plate Number 13. Walking

Eadweard Muybridge

National Gallery of Art

The image displays a series of photographs capturing a person walking in different stages from side, front, and back perspectives across multiple frames in a grid pattern. The individual is shown in motion, with short hair and indistinct facial features. They are unclothed, with no visible accessories. The background features simple settings like horizontal and vertical lines, appearing to be a fence or wall, with concrete ground. The environment seems to be outdoors with uniform lighting, typical of motion studies.
